Congratulations to Melanie Williams of Matisse, winner of the 2022 TIDA New Zealand Imported Kitchen of the Year. See more of this luxury penthouse kitchen

New lawn, ornamental features, planters, decorative edging and strategic lighting turn a small angular rear yard into a functional designer area

Referencing and celebrating existing architectural elements, this master suite features soft forms, diaphanous natural light and a tranquil ambience

This standout kitchen merges historic glamour with modern trends – from doorways hidden in the perimeter cabinetry to the gold rangehood 

A dull interior of a 90s home is transformed into a cohesive sequence of light, open spaces, dotted with bold statements throughout

With the front of this bungalow retaining its traditional charms, a renovation opens up the back for modern living – over two levels

This hilltop home is a response to its setting – three pods, a central living area, over-arching roof and encircling deck comprise a sustainable design open to land and sea

The minimalist bathroom style with stylised geometry and simplified colour palette makes for the perfect sanctuary – a pared back vanity is a great start

Moving to Wellington proved seamless for this family who worked closely with David Reid Homes to achieve the contemporary, detail-rich home they desired

In a bathroom already full of feature surfaces and forms, this marble vanity top adds a luxurious high note – the vibe is elegant and natural

Grey tones, wood tones, and connecting tones – for this renovation, kitchen meets dining table meets living area furniture in a relaxed fashion

Part of an eye-popping artistic master suite, this highly contemporary glass desk is a perfect match for the, wait for it, glass mezzanine floor
